The nicest computing
you've ever had

SuperMirror turns a paper-like display into a real-time external screen for your Mac. Everything you do — code, write, browse, design — rendered on a calm, flicker-free, daylight-readable surface.

Plug in USB and it starts. Full resolution, perfectly fitted, instantly responsive. Work outside in direct sunlight. Work by candlelight. Work without the eyestrain.

Built for paper-like screens.
And color tablets.

☀

E-ink & reflective displays

First-class support for Daylight DC-1, Boox, Hisense, and Dasung. Dedicated greyscale pipeline with contrast LUT, sharpening, and hardware brightness and warmth control.

Optimized
📱

Supported Android tablets

Samsung, Pixel, OnePlus, Xiaomi, and more. Requires Android 7 or later on 64-bit ARM. Color tablets show your Mac in full color, in portrait or landscape.

Everything you need,
nothing you don't

01

A direct cable connection

Connect your tablet with a USB data cable. WiFi works only on tablets that already allow network debugging, such as the Daylight DC-1.

02

Pixel-perfect resolution

Matches your device's exact native resolution. Eight presets from Cozy to Sharp — zero distortion.

03

Auto-start

Plug in USB. SuperMirror finds your device, picks the right resolution, and starts. No configuration.

04

E-ink pipeline

Dedicated greyscale rendering with contrast LUT and sharpening, tuned for paper-like screens.

05

Brightness & warmth

Hardware display controls via keyboard shortcuts. Warmth slider, backlight toggle, all from the menu bar.

06

Clamshell mode

Close your laptop lid. Keep working on the external display. Your Mac, untethered from its own screen.

Zero blue light.
Amber warmth control.

The Daylight's reflective display produces no light on its own. Turn on the backlight at night and dial the warmth all the way up — warm amber, like working by candlelight. Your circadian rhythm stays intact.

Sometimes I'm still shocked I can now use my Mac with ZERO blue light or PWM flicker. Full 60 fps.
